I have a filter set for more than 3 xposts, and I usually find out about
a thread when someone "does us a favor" and removes the extra posts.

I'd dislike killing threads because some of them have stuff I'd like to
read. I don't need the branch of a thread that's been hijacked by Butthead.

have you looked into nfilter? i think it's supposed to be able to kill
on any header, so you should be able to kill based on reference rather
than killing the whole thread...

you mentioned you felt that would slow things down too much, but i'm not
sure pcbutts actually appears in that many new threads so barring header
mishaps a single reference should get the entire branch, and old
references can be pruned from the list since threads eventually die
(some faster than others)...

not that i condone ignoring pcbutts... he's one of those rare trolls
where ignoring him actually allows him to do greater harm... sugien, for
all his {whatever it was he had}, was at least fairly benign...

I use NFilter and the T-Bird filter. I think NFilter would require
manually entering the message reference, then manually removing it.
Faster and easier to click on the Buttocks, down arrow, shift click, and
hit "M". A one click solution would be nice. A blanket solution would be
even better.

Yeah, people who know the subject should not ignore him. People like me,
with minimal expertise, should ignore him.

I don't think he qualifies as a "troll", though. Trolls seek to annoy or
to control, and I don't think most of them actually believe what they
are claiming (discovering what they actually do believe is the key to
their destruction). Buttocks has more in common with the Kooks and
Quacks that claim to have invented the telephone (or the internet <G>)
and actually believes his delusions of adequacy.

You love me because you can't let a thread die. You constantly try to elicit
a response from me and others. That makes you a troll. This is the last
reply you will get from me. I want to see how long you will go on trolling
me. You have almost reached Leythos the stalker stage.

lets test that theory, shall we? you stop posting (so that you don't
elicit a response from me) and we'll see how long i can go without
trying to elicit a response from you...
